The 'Entourage' Boys Get Emotional

While Miu Miu was busy throwing an all-girls party at the old Entourage mansion in LA, the show's cast of dudes was getting pretty emotional in New York last night. All of the actors gathered at the Paley Center for Media, with series creator Doug Ellin, to discuss the show's eighth and final season, which starts Sunday night on HBO.

Adrian Grenier, who plays the actor Vince Chase in the series, said that although he was losing castmates, "I feel like I'm gaining brothers, family, which, as an only child, I appreciate that." Kevin Dillon, who brilliantly plays Chase's mess of an older brother, Johnny Drama, said, "I don't know if I`ll ever play a character that has been as much fun as Johnny Drama," while Kevin Connolly, who portrays E, Vince's manager, said, "Nothing will ever be more special or unique than this experience."

Jerry Ferrara, who plays Turtle, was the least vocal of the five stars but admitted that the series, "changed my life, changed my whole family's life in a lot of ways. There's not much I can say, I really don't want to get emotional about it."

Jeremy Piven, who, no matter what, will always be remembered as Ari Gold, the most ruthless agent in Hollywood, said it is "amazing to get a show picked up, much less run a couple of years. Eight years, you have to be joyous about that. You have to be proud. You want to feel as though you left it on the field. And I do feel that way." Describing what sounded like the perfect work experience, he added, "I never feel like the feeling of after a shoot, feel I wish I would have tried this, or if I could have only done that I could have made the scene better. If you can walk away from something and feel like I did everything I possibly could...To finish that strong and have people wanting more, it's something you wish for. I feel joyous."
